So many times we are so enthralled with the process and processes, with the one project followed (and preceded) by the other project, with the necessary evils, the blessings out of nowhere, and the mundane tasks buried (or atop) it all…that we just don’t take that very integral moment to stop and say, “thank you”. So…thank you for it ALL! 😘 ~Shimah #higherme
Oftentimes, I am asked the origin and/or meaning of my name. Shimah is a derivative of the name Shammah; Hebrew-Arabic in origin, with a biblical reference to Jehovah Shammah meaning 'God is present'. It is pronounced with the accent on the second syllable and the only one who shortens it on a consistent basis is my mother. I think I've been looking for ways to ground myself since birth - love grounds me, as does the written word. And so, here we are! Please explore the menu on the homepage; here you will find the different areas in which I express myself through script. Be it impromptu poetry, editing work, my ever-growing children's literature series, or the socially conscious (yet personally knotted) blog, it all siphons into creating and expression by way of the written word. I refer to myself as the Maternal Head of a beautiful little girl who lovingly just calls me mommy. If you've gotten through this lengthy bio then I will assume you've got time today... so, please leave me a note - the literates are in need of inspiration and constructive feedback from time to time. Take care of your soul and I'll see ya'll 'round the way.
